Altai Mountains
Linked via "mammal"
The biological zones transition rapidly due to the steep elevation gradients. Lower slopes transition from coniferous taiga (dominated by Siberian Pine and Larch) to alpine meadows, culminating in nival zones above the permanent snow line.
The biodiversity is significant, featuring several endemic species. Notably, th… -

Circadian Rhythm
Linked via "mammals"
The Circadian Rhythm (from Latin circa, "about," and dies, "day") is an endogenous biological oscillation with a period approximating 24 hours. These intrinsic rhythms govern numerous physiological processes, including the sleep-wake cycle, hormone secretion, body temperature fluctuations, and metabolic rate in nearly all known life forms, from cyanobacteria to mammals. While commonly associated with the solar day, the rhythm itself is internal, operating independently of external time…

The Molecular Clock Mechanism
The core of the circadian system resides in the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus ($\text{SCN}$)/) in the hypothalamus of mammals. The $\text{SCN}$ acts as the primary pacemaker/), housing billions of coupled cellular oscillators. The fundamental mechanism relies on a transcriptional-translational feedback loop ($\text{TTFL}$) involving specific clock genes.
